The aluminum substrate is a metal-based copper clad laminate with good heat dissipation function. Generally, a single panel is composed of a three-layer structure: a circuit layer (copper foil), an insulating layer, and a metal base layer. Because the aluminum PCB has a heat dissipation layer, it has a good heat dissipation function, which can effectively reduce the component&#8217;s operating temperature and extend the service life of the product.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"row align-middle\"  id=\"row-1344877807\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1373861500\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_891577549\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner image-cover dark\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\">\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"393\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/uetpcb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/The-performance-of-Aluminum-PCB.png\" class=\"attachment-original size-original\" alt=\"Aluminium-Leiterplatte\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uetpcb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/The-performance-of-Aluminum-PCB.png 393w, https:\/\/uetpcb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/The-performance-of-Aluminum-PCB-300x255.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 393px) 100vw, 393px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_891577549 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"container section-title-container\" ><h2 class=\"section-title section-title-normal\"><b aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/b><span class=\"section-title-main\" >The working principle of aluminum PCB<\/span><b aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/b><\/h2><\/div>\n<p>First, the surface mounts the power device on the circuit layer.

The main discussion here is the manufacturing process, difficulties, and solutions of PCB.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Copper etching:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The copper foil used for PCBs is relatively thick. However, if the copper foil exceeds 3 ounces, the etching requires width compensation. If it does not meet the design requirements, the trace width of the etched PCB will exceed the tolerance range. Therefore, we should accurately design the trace width compensation of PCB. The etching factor needs to be controlled during the manufacturing process.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Solder mask printing:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Due to the thick copper foil, the solder mask printing of aluminum PCB is complex. This is because if the trace copper of the PCB is too thick, the etched image will be very different between the trace surface and the substrate, and the solder mask printing will be difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to use two solder mask printing. The solder resists oil used should be of good quality. In some cases, the resin is filled first, and then the PCB solder resist is filled.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Mechanical manufacturing:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The mechanical manufacturing process involves mechanical drilling, forming, v-scores, etc. These processes are left in the internal vias, which tends to reduce the electric strength. Therefore, we should use electric milling cutters and professional milling cutters to produce them in small batches. And we should adjust the drilling parameters to prevent the PCB from producing burrs.

Because FR-4 is not only a traditional material, but it is also inexpensive. Therefore it is preferred by manufacturers. Only industries that require high thermal performance will choose expensive aluminum substrates.<\/p>\n<div class=\"container section-title-container\" ><h2 class=\"section-title section-title-normal\"><b aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/b><span class=\"section-title-main\" >Key requirements when choosing an aluminum PCB manufacturer<\/span><b aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/b><\/h2><\/div>\n<p>All aluminum base pcb manufacturers follow the same aluminum pcb manufacturing process in most cases. The only real difference between aluminum based pcb manufacturers is the level of automation of their processes, the latest technology, and equipment.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3>Aluminum Circuit Boards<\/h3>\n<p>Several key items need to be considered if aluminum pcb manufacturers are to be able to produce any number of aluminum circuit boards, including efficiently<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Specialized imaging equipment<\/h3>\n<p>Many aluminum backed PCBs does use for LED applications and are much longer than the production panels used in traditional aluminum pcb manufacturing process. Aluminum based pcb manufacturers must have custom 60&#8243; wide UV imaging equipment or a device capable of screen printing images.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Specialized Scoring Equipment<\/h3>\n<p>The more common equipment available to obtain V-scores from traditional FR-4 materials is not suitable for managing aluminum PCBs. Aluminum base pcb manufacturers can help customers design the most cost-effective array to score panels whenever possible.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>Punch presses larger than 40 tons.<\/h3>\n<p>For PCBs that are round or have unique features (slots, large holes, cutouts, etc.), you will need a aluminum pcb manufacturer that can punch out these features. Attempting to route aluminum base pcbs mechanically is costly to accomplish these features in a production environment.<\/li>\n<li>\n<h3>In-line High Voltage Testing<\/h3>\n<p>A unique requirement of PCBs is that customers want to know if the product they are getting has passed a voltage test. Electrical test setups include withstanding voltage testing, which greatly reduces the cost to the customer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>UETPCB: experienced aluminum pcb manufacturer<\/h2>\n<p>UETPCB, one of China&#8217;s largest and most popular aluminum pcb manufacturers, occupies more than 3,000 square meters and specializes in manufacturing high quality pcb at low prices.
